CHRISTMAS Brandon & Carly

25 December 2009
Brandon's girlfriend, Carly, came over to exchange gifts and eat, and so it began:

Brandon carefully picked out this stuffed animal, because Carly had recently lost her dog, but was not allowed to get another one. Therefore, Brandon felt that the least he could do was get her this dog, especially since it was a husky (which looked like a wolf, and would hopefully remind her of him). He also gave her some homemade chocolate roses.

Carly knew that Gamecock items would also be a good thing to give. She wanted to help decorate Brandon's room, since he was going for a USC theme.
However, she had some other things in mind too... a buckshot game that they played together at work. She hoped this would remind him of their good times together there.
Plus, cologne and body spray... Lots and lots of it!!!! Was she sending him a message? ;)
(She gave him several packages of different scents.)
Then she gave him a Bass Pro Shop sweatshirt, which he LOVED! It was definitely something that he appreciated.

Carly was not to be left out, though. She had more packages to be opened...
Brandon got her some clothes and jewelry.

He matched them up pretty well.

She loved it!

Of course, she suspected that I helped pick them out. ;)

Okay, I guess I did....but Brandon was adament about getting her things in purple, since it's one of her favorite colors. =) He did very well.

They both loved their exchanges... and felt great about what they had chosen! Yay! I love successes!
